At a Nato press conference in the Netherlands, President Trump took a question from Myroslava Petsa from the BBC Ukrainian Service.
She asked whether the US would be supplying Patriot air defence systems to Ukraine.
Trump then asked where she was from and took an interest in her personal situation, asking whether her husband was a soldier in Ukraine, to which she said yes.
"I wish you a lot of luck, I can see this is very upsetting to you and say hello to your husband," he concluded.
Nato leaders have agreed to ramp up defence spending to 5% of their countries’ economic output by 2035, following months of pressure from Donald Trump.
The US president described the decision, taken at a summit in The Hague, as a "big win for Europe and… Western civilisation".
